NAME

       Module::Install::Admin - Author-side manager for Module::Install

SYNOPSIS

       In a Module::Install extension module:

	   sub extension_method {
	       my $self = shift;
	       $self->admin->some_method(@args);
	   }

       As an one-liner:

	   % perl "-MModule::Install::Admin" -e'&some_method(@args);'

       The two snippets above are really shorthands for

	   $some_obj->some_method(@args)

       where $some_obj is the singleton object of a class under the "Module::Install::Admin::*" namespace that provides the method "some_method".
       See "METHODS" for a list of built-in methods.

DESCRIPTION

       This module implements the internal mechanism for initializing, including and managing extensions, and should only be of interest to
       extension developers; it is never included under a distribution's inc/ directory, nor are any of the Module::Install::Admin::* extensions.

       For normal usage of Module::Install, please see Module::Install and "COOKBOOK / EXAMPLES" in Module::Install instead.

   Bootstrapping
       When someone runs a Makefile.PL that has "use inc::Module::Install", and there is no inc/ in the current directory, Module::Install will
       load this module bootstrap itself, through the steps below:

       o   First, Module/Install.pm is POD-stripped and copied from @INC to inc/.  This should only happen on the author's side, never on the end-
	   user side.

       o   Reload inc/Module/Install.pm if the current file is somewhere else.	This ensures that the included version of inc/Module/Install.pm is
	   always preferred over the installed version.

       o   Look at inc/Module/Install/*.pm and load all of them.

       o   Set up a "main::AUTOLOAD" function to delegate missing function calls to "Module::Install::Admin::load" -- again, this should only
	   happen at the author's side.

       o   Provide a "Module::Install::purge_self" function for removing included files under inc/.

NAME

       Module::Install::AutoLicense - A Module::Install extension to automagically generate LICENSE files

SYNOPSIS

	 # In Makefile.PL

	 use inc::Module::Install;
	 author 'Vestan Pants';
	 license 'perl';
	 auto_license;

       An appropriate "LICENSE" file will be generated for your distribution.

DESCRIPTION

       Module::Install::AutoLicense is a Module::Install extension that generates a "LICENSE" file automatically whenever the author runs
       "Makefile.PL". On the user side it does nothing.

       When "make distclean" is invoked by the author, the "LICENSE" is removed.

       The appropriate license to determined from the meta provided with the "license" command and the holder of the license from the "author"
       command.

       Software::License is used to generate the "LICENSE" file.

COMMANDS

       This plugin adds the following Module::Install command:

       "auto_license"
	   Does nothing on the user-side. On the author-side it will generate a "LICENSE" file according to the previously supplied "license"
	   command. The "holder" of the license is determined from the "author" meta or may be specified using the "holder" parameter.

	     auto_license( holder => 'Vestan Pants and Ivor Biggun' );

	   It is important to note that the "auto_license" must follow "author" and "license" commands in the "Makefile.PL" ( as demonstrated in
	   the SYNOPSIS above ), otherwise the meta these commands provide will be unavailable to "auto_license".  Call it a feature.
